Apple introduced Apple Intelligence, a personal intelligence system for iPhone, iPad, and Mac that combines the power of generative models with personal context to deliver relevant intelligence.
“We’re thrilled to introduce a new chapter in Apple innovation. Apple Intelligence will transform what users can do with our products — and what our products can do for our users,” said Tim Cook, Apple’s CEO. “Our unique approach combines generative AI with a user’s personal context to deliver truly helpful intelligence.
Apple Intelligence is deeply integrated into iOS 18, iPadOS 18, and macOS Sequoia, allowing users to access ChatGPT’s capabilities—including image and document understanding without switching between tools.
With Private Cloud Compute, Apple sets a new standard for privacy in AI. It can flex and scale computational capacity between on-device processing and larger, server-based models that run on dedicated Apple silicon servers, unlocking intelligence users can trust.
Siri can also tap into ChatGPT’s intelligence when helpful. Apple users are asked before any questions, along with any documents or photos, are sent to ChatGPT, and Siri then presents the answer directly.
Additionally, ChatGPT will be available in Apple’s systemwide Writing Tools to help users generate content for anything they are writing about. Users can also tap into ChatGPT image tools to create images in various styles to complement what they are writing.
Privacy protections are built in for users who access ChatGPT—their IP addresses are obscured, and OpenAI won’t store requests. ChatGPT’s data-use policies apply for users who choose to connect their accounts.
The ChatGPT integration, powered by GPT-4o, will be available later this year for iOS, iPadOS, and macOS.
Users can access it for free without creating an account, and ChatGPT subscribers can connect their accounts and access paid features right from these experiences.
“We’re excited to partner with Apple to bring ChatGPT to their users in a new way. Apple shares our commitment to safety and innovation, and this partnership aligns with OpenAI’s mission to make advanced AI accessible to everyone. Together with Apple, we’re making it easier for people to benefit from what AI can offer,” said Sam Altman, CEO of OpenAI.
